Chapter 23 - Encounter with Hades

"Hahahahahaha"

"Freedom didn't Zeus offer the same, and look where we are still."

"I'm not Zeus."

"Of course, you aren't, let me ask you if you could have found someone else to forge what you wanted with our level of skill before you came here would you have still come here pretending to offer us freedom?"

"Of course not," Cul answered without any hesitation.

"I mean come on you know how much risk I'm taking intruding on hades territory, of course, if there was an easier way I would have done it, but your talent has made you important enough for me to turn my attention to you and risk coming here and offer you freedom for that talent, and as long as you have that talent I see no reason to lock you up when you could be of use to me and the kingdom I plan on building."

" At least you speak the truth."

"So will you show me where the rest of your race is so I can get a weapon forged?"

" Fine, follow me I make no promise that the other will agree to what you want." He says as he turns and continues to walk deeper into the cave

As Cul follows him he can't help but feel the changes in the space around them, the cave itself is responding to the cyclops and changing the route with every step he takes, it seems to be some kind of enchantment geared to work only of a cyclops is present.

" you looked surprised by the enchantments."

" That's because I am."

" If you didn't know about the enchantment how did you reach as far as you did?"

" just luck I guess." was what Cul said but he had a different reason in mind and it was Gaea after all the cyclops are her children and she was always sad that they were in Tamara's even from the times of Oceanus.

As they continued to advance Cul started feeling heat cooking from the front and the distant pounding out of steel and he knew it had to be that they were forging something currently.

As they exited the cave they came to an open space where there were what looked to be houses built, Cul wasted no time as he followed the sound and arrived at one of these houses and entered, and when he did so he saw a cyclops forging what looked to be a sword, Cul stood there and watched the process from shaping to quenching to sharpening, when the cyclops was finished he leaned the finished knife to the side and just by looking at it Cul could tell it was a really good piece.

"What is it you want young god?"

"I want a weapon forged."

"You have the scent of Gaea on you, did she send you."

"No, but she told me where to find you knowing I would offer you freedom if you forge me a weapon."

"Alright, a weapon for freedom."

"But it would seem you have something to take care of first." as he said that Cul felt the change in space and someone appears outside the main entrance of the cave and Cul could only think of one person Hades.

"I'll be right back." saying this Cul disappeared and reappeared in front of Hades.

"So you're the one who broke into my realm, a prince of Asgard."

"And you're the would-be ruler of the underworld Hades, I hear the underworld didn't fully accept you," says Cul

"Boy, you should be begging for me not to kill you yet, here you are making jokes, it would seem you don't fear death."

"You don't know how foolish you sound, why would a god of fear be afraid of anything?" asked Cul

"Enough talk I have things to do." says hades as his Dreadful aura descends onto the surroundings filled with wails of his victims, not even a second after a second aura appears not as strong as the first but you could feel the difference as Cul's aura was filled with dominance pushing everything to submit, ash they stood there ready to fight Hades pulled out two battle axes while Cul took out his Glaive.
